    Wendy Black was a beautiful person who we will greatly miss. She had a strong Christian faith and a very loving, giving spirit. We do enjoyed getting together with her and sharing memories and experiences. We know that she is now resting in the arms of Jesus her Lord and enjoying the company of those she loved.
